After the Supreme Court overruled its own 2013 decision and partially struck down Section 377, a controversial British-era law that banned consensual gay sex, many people have come forward to share their relief and stories they have kept hidden. On NDTV, a young man narrates the ordeal his gay partner had to go through after he was gang-raped in central Delhi because he couldn't go to the police for fear of being made fun of. "I am sure had Section 377 not been there probably he could have had justice," the young man said.
